The Billionaire's Regret 106. Let the Game, Begin
Leena's POV“[BREAKING NEWS: Mrs. Leena, Ex-wife to Mr. James and Wife of Mr. Sean, reveals her wealth and turns out to be the isolated Trillionaire Chairman. She has secretly built a gigantic ENA Empire that scales higher than other industries in the nation.]” The news broadcaster continued speaking as her voice escaped from the speakers. I elegantly walked into the media firm and all eyes were on me.They looked shocked and also speechless while some of them looked at the television and back at me.“Ma'am.” Sarah, the Team Leader stepped out of her office.“Did you get the message from Attorney Lawrence?” I asked as we continued walking down the hallway path.“Yes, I did.” She nodded.“And how is the public taking the news?” I asked, raising a brow.“Everyone is in shock right now. I mean everyone.” As she spoke, she brought out the tablet and showed me the comment.No doubt, they were impressive.“Is the press room ready? I want to go live.” I instructed her.“Yes, it is.” She nodd
The Billionaire's Regret 107. Old Lies
Leena's POV“Babe, I'm coming with you.” He said insistently, grabbing my arm.“No, babe. It's very important and quite confidential. I must go alone.” He slowly pulled his hand away after hearing my words.“Will you be alright?” He asked, raising a brow.“I will call you if I encounter any problems,” I assured him with a warm smile.He pulled me into a tight embrace which didn't last and I knew he was reluctant to let me go.“I'll be back.” That was the last word I said before entering the car.I knew what made him anxious and scared was that I left with no guard or driver.I had been too busy and didn't have enough time to visit the address Lawrence had sent to me.I stepped on the engine as I drove to the location. To the park that my real parents visited before leaving for London.When I arrived, it was already evening and the park was isolated.I walked on the field as my eyes wandered around the place.“Why would they come here?” I muttered aloud as I continued walking.It was a
The Billionaire's Regret 108. Is this the End?
Leena's POV“Babe, where have you been? I didn't get any call from you.” He asked as soon as I stepped out of the car.He had been waiting for me in the garage and looked relieved as he saw me.“Sorry, dear. Something else came up.” I exhaled heavily as we walked into the living room.“What happened? I was worried about you.” He complained sadly.“I know. I didn't call because I had everything under control.” I assured him with a warm smile and he nodded.“Well, you still have to tell me where you went to and what happened.” He insisted and I smirked.“Fine. If that's what you want, no problem.” I paused and my eyes wandered around the living room after we walked in.“And where are my boys?” I asked, curling my lips.“Did you check your time at all?” He raised a mocking brow and I gradually checked my wristwatch.“Oops!” I closed my eyes and he chuckled.It was almost midnight.“So, what happened?” He sat down, patting the armchair for me to join him which I did.“Lawrence shared some
The Billionaire's Regret 109. Unpredictable Encounter
Sean's POV“Mum?” I gasped in shock when I saw my parents at the airport. “Why are you surprised to see us?” My mother grinned.“Grandma! Grandpa!” JC and CJ ran and embraced their grandparents in excitement.“I never told you to come here. We could meet at home, you know.” I shrugged.“Babe.” Leena placed her hand on my shoulder. “Actually, your mother was anxious to see us so I suggested she meet us at the airport…” she trailed off when I looked at her in shock and disbelief.“Seriously? You did this behind my back?” I asked, sounding as if I was annoyed.“I'm sorry.” She lowered her face.“No need to be annoyed, son. Your mother and I only wanted to see our grandchildren. It's been ages.” My father tried to ease the tense atmosphere.I wasn't mad at them for coming here but I just wanted to keep our arrival away from the media.I hadn't concluded my thoughts when we heard camera shutters and voices coming from a distance.“Boss! Reporters spotted us!” Samuel informed me with an im
The Billionaire's Regret 110. Test
Leena's POV“I… I'm Leena, though I heard my last name was Julia.” I said skeptically as her eyes brightened.She nervously cleared her throat. “Anyone can have that name.” She said in a cold tone.“I know.” I walked closer to her. “I also know that you went to New York this week to reminisce on your sad past,” I said bluntly in a polite tone.“I don't know what you are talking about.” She turned her eyes away from me.“Mrs. Carter, I'm your lost child, Julia, who was illegally adopted by the Martins family and got my name changed to Leena,” I informed her meticulously and her eyes widened in disbelief.“You want me to believe you?” She scoffed.“You have to because I also have a younger brother, named Kelvin who has always been bedridden.” I reminded her seriously.I couldn't believe that I was standing before my real mother but she couldn't believe me.“I don't believe you.” She said bluntly, walking back to her desk.“Why?” I asked, sounding desperate and disappointed.“Do you know
The Billionaire's Regret 111. An Unplanned Reunion
Leena's POV“Sweetheart, hope you are not angry with us over our decision.” Sean's mother's voice came up as I was clearing the dishes.I smirked and looked at her with a smile.“My husband told me about everything yesterday.” I paused, whipped my hands with the napkin, and walked closer to her.We leaned on the kitchen table.“Something happened yesterday, that was why I couldn't greet or speak friendly with anyone. I'm not mad at anyone at home neither will I hate you for your choice.” She exhaled sharply.“It's not one's fault that you love your grandchildren, right?” I teased and she laughed heartily.“True, true.” She nodded her head in adjournment.It was my first time to witness this kind of relationship.She knew they weren't Sean's real children yet she loved them immensely.“So, when do you on leaving?” She asked, raising an anxious brow.“I think tomorrow morning. I pleaded with Sean and he agreed.” I assured her and her smile became brighter.Soon, she placed her palm on m
The Billionaire's Regret 112. His First Request
Leena's POV“How have you been, Leena? I had no idea what happened to you. I haven't even heard from you since we met.” Veronica said as I placed the glass of wine on the table.“Believe me, everything happened so fast and right now, I can't explain what really happened.” I said rashly and she smirked.“But you are back for real, right?” She asked anxiously.“Yes, I'm. I don't have anything to do outside of the States.” I assured her with a warm smile.“Meanwhile, Jasper has grown big since the last time I saw him.” I said as our eyes narrowed to the children who were playing in the living room.“Hello??? My son is four years old now.” She reminded me and I smiled.“Yeah, I know. My children were just one or two years old when we departed.” I said cryptically.“So, what's the plan?” She asked, raising an anxious brow.“Nothing much. I will try to settle down and fix a little thing.” I said and we chuckled at the same time.“Well… I'm staying around here now. My husband purchased the m
The Billionaire's Regret 113. Breaking Boundaries
Leena’s POVI couldn’t sleep the entire night even when it felt like I was sleeping. My thoughts ran wild and I felt bad.He was also feeling it, I assume.We have been married for more than five years yet we hadn’t consummate our marriage.He never asked for it and I also didn’t make advances.Before he asked, it meant he really wanted it.“Momma, why are we eating so early?” JC asked as I placed their meal on the table.“That’s because momma has other plans today. Make sure you finish up and head back to your room.” I instructed them warmly.“What about Dad, isn't he having breakfast with us?” CJ asked, raising an anxious brow.“He will but he is still in bed and I can't afford to wake him up.” I lied blatantly and my eyes wouldn’t stop blinking.“But you woke up too from our sleep.” JC reminded me, sounding annoyed.They didn’t expect me to wake Sean up when I hadn't gotten an answer to his request.Obviously, I was running away from him and also trying to articulate what I really

“[BREAKING NEWS: Mr. and Mrs. Sean were the victims of an explosion around the isolated part of the city, the cause of the explosion is yet…]” Almost all the television, radios, and phones were announcing the same news. “How did this happen?” Leena's mother rushed into the emergency ward. “How come? How did something like this happen to both of them?” Leena's father asked anxiously as anxiety lingered in his eyes. “That shouldn't be our problem now.” Sean's father cried out. “What do you mean?” Leena's mother stared at him intently. “Only Sean's body was found at the explosion scene.” He paused. “Leena…. Leena…” He continued stuttering. “What are you implying?” Leena's father's lips started trembling. “Leena's body wasn't found.” Sean's mother spilled bluntly and the latter gasped in shock. It felt like they were electrocuted as they didn't speak or move for minutes. “Leena!!! How? Why?” Leena's mother wailed as she rambled with several questions. “We don't know. Sean barely
The Billionaire's Regret 139. Big Destruction
Leena's POV “Lawrence, I mean it when I said my children are under your care.” I began. “My parents and Sean's parents or someone else might come to make things difficult for you but as long as I'm not reachable, you've all the right to my children,” I said seriously. “You are confusing and serious, Leena. Is something going on?” He asked anxiously, raising a brow. “Everything is fine.” I placed a hand on his shoulder. “Thank you for everything. From beginning till the end, I truly appreciate it.” I said, forcing out a smile. “Thanks for trusting me.” He said courteously with a short bow. “Did you bring the car and prepare all that I told you to?” I asked him impatiently and he sighed. “I can't believe I did something like this.” He paused. “I trust you are sending this over to someone else, if not, I will blame myself forever if something happens to you.” He said sadly and I smirked. “I'm just trying to set things the way they were in the past. It's never your fault.” I assur
The Billionaire's Regret 138. Game Over
Leena's POV “Who are you?” And when he came out fully, I gave him a scornful look. “Who am I?” I smirked. “Has it gotten to the time when you can't recognize me?” I questioned him in disgust. “My apologies, I didn't see you clearly,” Harry said courteously. “Where is your boss? Where is James?” I fired at him anxiously. “He is not around at the moment.” He said, lowering his face to the ground and I knew he was lying. “I know that brat is in there. James! James! James!” I started banging at the gate again in anger. “Open this gate and let me in!” I barked at his face. “I'm sorry but I was asked not to open the gate for you.” He said randomly. “Harry, your boss is doing something evil! He is ruining my family. Will you still try to protect him till the end?” I asked him, raising a brow and he shook his head. “Please, leave Mrs. Sean.” He said coldly. “I can't believe you. All of you are evil. I won't let any of you go scout-free.” I cried bitterly. “Mrs. Sean, please leave n
The Billionaire's Regret 137. How Did We Get To This?
Leena's POV “James! James, you bastard! Come out here and atone for your sins!” I screamed while banging the gate. This had been going on for more than two hours yet he wasn't in sight. Was he ignoring me? He ruined Sean. He ruined my family and gave us sleepless nights. Why was he so wicked? “How did we get here?” I cried out with all my veins showing through my neck as I collapsed to the ground. As my eyes closed, old memories rushed through like adrenaline. I couldn't control or help it as I cried profusely. Sharp Flashback - “You're here.” He walked confidently to my corner and handed me a bunch of roses. I smiled. “Wow, thank you.” I gushed. “Come with me.” I took his hand as he walked me up to the round table. My eyes met with the plate on the table, a small cupcake was in the center and the chef designed a love shape around it. At the sides of the shape, there was a short note. “Be Mine Forever.” I was taken aback, flustered, and shocked. “James…’’ I trailed of
The Billionaire's Regret 136. Against All Odds
Leena's POV “Officer, I can't believe you fell for those words he stated. He is lying!” I couldn't control my emotions as I yelled at the police officer in anger. “What do you mean?” He scoffed. “I know the man I married. James would and will never have any twins!” I said seriously. “But he showed us evidence and everything. He also had an alibi that made it hard for us to point him as the victim.” He rashly explained to me. “Am I blind or something? How come for so many years when I was married to him, I never heard of or seen his so-called twin brother? Why are you falling for these lies? I mean, you can even ask around to know if this is true!” I rambled with words in annoyance, firing several questions at them. “We are sorry, Mrs. Sean. We have to follow this case slowly. Besides, he has good connections and I'm afraid of losing my job.” He said skeptically and I smirked. “What? So, you are trying to save your head rather than bringing justice to me? Where is my detective? W
The Billionaire's Regret 135. No More in Love
James' POV “I knew from the start that both of you are good-for-nothing pigs!” I yelled at their faces in anger as they buried their faces on the ground. “We… we are sorry boss.” They stuttered. “I warned you, didn't I? I told you not to insert bullets in the guns as we are only going to scare them!” I reminded them in disgust. “We are sorry boss but…” they trailed off when the door of the warehouse made a loud noise. My father approached us with a deep mischievous laugh. “I told them to do so.” He spilled bluntly and my jaw dropped. “What?” It was too hard to believe and the only way to protect my emotion was to act clueless. “I told them to pull the trigger if Leena or her so-called husband refused to hand over my grandchildren.” He informed me seriously and I scoffed in disbelief. “Father!” I cried out sadly as a big frown took residence on my face. “What?” He gave me a scornful look. “We can't afford to hurt anyone or play dirty.” I reminded him seriously. “This is my g
The Billionaire's Regret 134: Vengeance for Momma
Sean's POV “How is my daughter?”“How is he? What's going on?”Leena's parents rushed into the emergency ward, looking anxious and worried.“She…” I held my head with my palm, feeling devasted.“She is still in the operating room,” I informed them sadly.“Why? Isn't it taking too long?” Her mother panicked.“It is. It is but I can't barge in, can I?” I raised an anxious brow.“How did this happen? You were impatient over the phone so we didn't get the full details.” Her father's voice came up, staring at me.“We were at home, thinking about how to tighten our safety since I wasn't comfortable with the kidnap case.” I began.“I was shocked when I heard he had broken the mansion gate with his men.” I sighed heavily.“Everything happened so fast and it was only the sound of the gun that brought me back to earth,” I explained meticulously and they shook their heads in disbelief.“That brat has grown so bold!” Her mother gnashed her teeth.“He pushed my daughter to this state, does he thin

Father!” I screamed in anger as I stormed into my father's office, holding a newspaper.I just received the worst news of my life and he was at fault.My father seemed to be busy as a brunette sat on his desk while they engaged in a steamy lustful affair.My eyes blazed in anger as I watched my father passionately kissing another lady who wasn't my mother and moaning, the lady's legs were wrapped around his waist.“Go get a room if you don't know what they call dignity!” I yelled at him in anger and they flinched.“Where are your manners? Can't you knock?” He quickly arranged his trousers and shirt as he took his seat.The brunette picked up her clothes lying on the floor and rushed out of his office.I turned my gaze back at my father.“Why should I knock? Does this place look like a hotel to you?” I questioned him in disgust.“Why are you here? You always like interrupting my peaceful moments!” He yelled at my face but I rolled my eyes.“You can screw all the wome
The Billionaire's Regret 132: The Future
James' POV“Arghh!!!” I screamed at the top of my voice as I charged over the guards.“You bastard!” I grabbed the first one by his collar and punched him in anger.“I told you to fucking keep watch and make sure you don't escape! Are you deaf!” As I spoke, I grabbed the other one and pushed him to the ground.“We… we are sorry, boss.” They trembled on the floor.“How dare you! You should have been careful!” I was so enraged that their apology did nothing more than irritate me.“I paid you enough and fed you for these few days! You grew stupid because I failed to tame you!” I picked up hard wood on the floor and spanked them in anger.They winced in pain, falling to the ground.“You have less than one hour to atone for your sin, otherwise I can't assure you of keeping your life,” I informed them curtly before storming out of the warehouse.I was angry because this was the first task my father had given me since the time my mother died.He wanted to fight with me until I got what was mi
